Procter Proposed to “Sell” Gen. Wood As “Commodity,” Campaign Worker Says By the Associated Press CHICA September 26.—Col. Wil- iam Cooper Procter, who was head of the Gen. Leonard Wood presidential campaign in 1920, proposed to “sell” the candidate to the people as he would a commodity in business, Her- bert L.

The latter was treasurer of the Wood campaign, and Procte: seeks to recover half the amount of 2 $100,- 000 note which he said Sprague in- dorsed. “Col.

Satterlee was associ. ated with the Eastern headquarters of the Wood campalgn. “His idea, he sald, wus that in these days, to use a commercial expression, it was necessary to ‘sell’ the candi- date to people just as if he were an unknown, new proprietary article, or icance or invention,” the led.

Appeal of science to the community depends on the extent to which the people are educated to accept the knowledge disseminated by sclentists who have studled the particular of the locality, Dr. Alexander ¢ of the University of Aber- cotland, sald at a joint meeting of ihe Washington Academy of Sciences and the Chemical Soclety of shington at the Cosmos Club last litarlan science, strong as it is, he said, will appeal to individuals only in so far as it is comprehendable to them. They are not sufficlently edu- cated to grasp its full meaning and extent, the speaker said. Success of great engineering feats such as the construction of the Panama Canal, he declared, is due more to the diffusion of the biologist’s knowledge than to the engineer. Pure and applied science are really two subjects, he said. He explained a common aversion of business men to pure sclence, while evincing an interest in applied sclence, when, as a matter of fact, each is an integral part of the other, each practically worthless and impossible without the other. Dr. Findlay warned against making a god of scientific efficlency, because of a tendency to stagnation, and claimed there is danger in appeals to a community while procleiming great achievements for science. A number of incidents were cited to show that processes now in use were the result of accidental discoveries along other lines. That application of scientific meth- ods for development and advancement of this country is desirable is evi- denced by the readiness with which the Government, the States and indus- tries generally aid in the establish- ment of research institutios the and awnings.
